Reactions have trailed reports that music star, Azeez Fashola aka Naira Marley in the custody of the police.
This comes after Lagos State Police Command PRO, SP Benjamin Hundeyin via his X handle confirmed the singer has been arrested.
He wrote, “Azeez Fashola aka Naira Marley has been taken into custody for interrogation and other investigation activities…#justice4Mohbad #justiceforMohbad.”
Earlier, the Marlian Music boss announced via his verified X handle on Tuesday night that he had returned to Nigeria.
He wrote, “I’d like to share that I’ve just arrived back in Lagos, Nigeria to assist the authorities with the ongoing investigation. It’s important I do my part for Imole. I’ll be meeting with the police with hopes for the truth to be uncovered and for justice to prevail.”
Naira Marley has debunked allegations that he has a hand in the death of Mohbad, stressing that despite their fallout in 2022, “no harm was wished on him.”
See how Nigerians reacted
Naira Marley was summoned by the Nigerian police for days, but look at the time he's supposedly showing up. If he wasn't a well connected person will the police let such disrespect slide? Again why is Sam Larry not behind bars yet? There's a petition against him & multiple proof…

We have more pressing issues.
Bola Ahmed Tinubu's certificate is FAKE!!!
We are not ready for all these! What came out of Sam Larry ‘assist’ ? Why’s the autopsy result delayed? Why is Mohbad’s wife not questioned & interrogated? You people have a lot of evidence to know the real killers of Mohbad but you choose to interrogate Sam Larry & Naira Marley…

Keep him there so he doesn’t interfere with the investigation. Also make sure his phone is checked thoroughly.
